Not Dead

There has been some questioning as to whether or not I am dead. Not dead, just Christmas-ing. Christmas-ing and mommy-ing and house-trying-to-sell-ing and lots of other ings.

This week the Bug and I have been sick, sick, sick with who knows what. We're just grateful that we should be mostly out of the woods come Christmas (and praying that it doesn't take Daddy out just in time for it).

We have been partying with family. We are so blessed to be able to have such wonderful people to call relatives.




We have been making goodies (or trying at least), wrapping presents, writing cards, decorating cookies and making snowflakes. We are so thankful for this season and for all the joy that it brings.






We've been shoveling and shoveling and shoveling the 2 feet of snow we got practically overnight. We're grateful that our cul-de-sac wasn't plowed and Daddy had an excuse to stay home from work.



As you can see, he used his time off wisely.

What a happy time this is! We are ever grateful to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We are grateful for what He chose to accomplish for each of us. President Gordon B. Hinckley said :
"There would be no Christmas if there had not been Easter. The babe Jesus of Bethlehem would be but another baby without the redeeming Christ of Gethsemane and Calvary, and the triumphant fact of the Resurrection."
We hope that you are able to enjoy this time and count your blessings. Merry Christmas from our family to yours!
